Selecting the right pump for high-viscosity materials isn’t straightforward. Misunderstanding pressure, material behavior, or system setup can lead to costly downtime, inconsistent output, and premature equipment wear. This white paper helps  eliminate that guesswork by answering the most common real-world questions — so you can make informed decisions before investing in a system.

This document covers the key factors in selecting and operating a high-viscosity piston pump for demanding materials like sealants, adhesives, and greases. It explains how to align pump design with material behavior, understand pressure requirements, and decide when one pump can handle multiple tasks or when separate systems are needed.

Practical Guide: Reducing Material Waste in Sealant & Adhesive Manufacturing

Raw materials are your largest production cost—but how much might you be losing to waste? Many sealant and adhesive manufacturers experience hidden material losses from inefficient pumping systems, costly changeovers, and unexpected downtime. This guide explores practical strategies that could help minimize waste in material transfer, reduce cleaning time during batch changes, and prevent equipment failures. Optimizing your material handling equipment may lower disposal costs, improve product quality, and increase production capacity.
